Abstract

The flow-dividing transmission systems of an arc-tooth cone gear are applicable for complex power flow-dividing cases. The authors have analyzed the power flow direction under different operating conditions when the systems in question are applied in a marine transmission plant. With a typical operating condition serving as an example, proposed was a method for analyzing the geometrical contact of the above transmission system. On the basis of the contact analysis of an arc-tooth cone gear tooth, with a comprehensive consideration of a marginal contact in the system and errors resulting from the installation mismatch and engagement of various gear pairs in the system, designed was a chart indicating the tooth surface contact footprint and transmission errors of the system, thus, providing a theoretical basis for optimizing the system gear-meshing performance and further analyzing the load-bearing condition of various gear pairs in the system.
